Yaa, opposite side surgery, what procedure was done? For 19 mm stone,  we can go for mini PCNL,which gives complete stone clearance with minimal injury to kindeny.

Ideally miniperc PCNL would be a better choice. It's depends on the treating philosophy of your Urologist, PCNL, RIRS or shock wave lithotripsy, all can be done in your case .
